Men may have a weird way of showing their feelings, but when I'm separated from my partner/whatever and something interesting happens while I'm away, I let them know about it at the time and if I miss someone I call them. Maybe I'm not typical and most simply go away and never contact again til they get back.
The other thing is that he's going to be surrounded by friends and family. He's much less likely to miss her than she is him. You know how busy you get when you have limited visiting time and more plans than you have time.
So it's hard to say whether no contact means anything or not. I personally feel that while she shouldn't just contact him excessively, if she feels an urge she can show she's thinking about him by simply texting him "how are things going? Having fun?" Just because your spouse/XS doesn't show concern or missing by contact doesn't mean that you also have to be as uncaring. What message does it send them? "Well, they didn't contact me either so what's the big deal?" I guess even when DBing I feel I should act in the way that is still being true to myself. I don't like trying to win my XW back at the expense of being different than who I am. I want to be accepted for who I am.
